Our Review

This gentle picture book introduces young children to the important concept of personal boundaries through a relatable story about a girl named Nina. When her personal space feels invaded, the narrative thoughtfully explores what a "body bubble" is and helps kids identify the difference between appropriate and inappropriate touching. The simple, clear language makes these crucial social-emotional lessons accessible for preschoolers, providing a foundational understanding of consent and bodily autonomy.

What sets this resource apart is its actionable approach, offering concrete steps a child can take when they feel uncomfortable with someone's touch. The story empowers children to recognize their own feelings and gives them the language to advocate for themselves in a calm, age-appropriate manner. Parents and caregivers seeking a tool to start an essential conversation about safety and boundaries will find this book an invaluable and reassuring guide for their young ones.
